The Ping G5's large, forgiving head is ideal for club golfers who can’t bring themselves to use a rescue club. A bucket-load of confidence is generated by the golf ball-sized half-moon alignment on the crown, which is shared by the Ping G5 driver.

The Ping G5 steel head and super springy face sound great and reinforce confidence even when you hit a bad one. The Ping G5's internal weighting locates lots of weight low and deep in the head, which will lead to you launching shots on a super-high, soft-landing trajectory. As long as you don’t want to dig golf shots out of knee-deep rough, you’ll have a whale of a time hitting towering shots from 200 yards out.
